GUNESH
1999 , TURKMENISTAN - EURO 13.00
Label: BOHEME MUSIC INT.
ALBUM REVIEW
Middle Eastern sounding progressive horn rock/fusion group. Third CD includes the first album Gunesh (try imagine if the first Chicago Transit Authority album had amongst its ranks a drummer who was just an insane madman and they played Middle Eastern themes) released in 1980 and the second one titled Looking at the Earth from 1984 which stepped it up a notch on the creative scale. We still have 2 barn burner horn rockers but Gunesh also added some trippy Caucasus mountain music, Muslim prayer calls, psychedelia, hot fusion, Vietnamese traditional music, etc.. to make for one of the finest albums I've ever heard.
